Before I got the recall notice we went and had it fixed and we had to pay for that. They dont seem to be to concerened about our saftey or it woul already be fixed.now only back passenger dorr can be opened from the outside all the other doors messed up at the same time and they want $500 to fix two doors really.

My recall was Jan 2015 that low beam head lights goes off. Mine are off all the time. No parts available so they want me to pay for repairs. If repairs are available then why do they pay to fix. Bill app.300.00 can not drive night only have high and fog lights. Have talked to royal Buick hoover al. And head man steven senior advisior at Buick. He said he would help. All he did was call royal and they said $105 for diagnasit plus repairs. I am on social security and small ret. From county. Can not afford. Second recall on this car. If I have a wreck and hurt some one or me hope they can pay bills thank you for listening bless you.
